10 Ways to "Sneak" Exercise in Your Day




1.Live in a home with stairs
2.Never go up or down stated stairs without carrying at least one child &/or at least one laundry basket
3. Forget why you went up or down stated stairs until you get back to where you started from
4. Carry a child around at all times, especially useful when you need to pick things off the ground
5. Move to a foreign country where a dishwasher is always a person (you)
6. Don't make your children eat at the same time (if you have 3 children, you could fix at least 9 meals & 6 snacks in 1 day)
7. Have older children leave their cups & plates out so that younger ones can dump out those 9 meals & 6 snacks (really lean into those swipes at the floor)
8. Never cook or serve food that can simply be swept up; preferably things that have to be picked up piece by sticky piece
9.Encourage children to change clothes multiple times; preferably handwash-only clothing
10. Leave young toddler alone for 10 minutes daily- the messes made in these 10 minutes can take several hours (and tons of calories) to clean up
